On Saturday we had our groups work day at Toad Holes Beck. We had planned to repair some steps, tidy up the gravel path adjacent to the pond, widen the grass paths and do a litter pick.
Peter from the YWT had kindly donated some wood for the steps and this was our first task.
Once the steps were in and everything tided up it was onto strimming and widening the path….But also having a welcome break….when a pair of handsome Bullfinches showed off close by…
We also cleared the gravel path as the trees and shrubs were getting over grown and the grass was encroaching onto the path…
So all in all it was a good mornings work. Sadly the litter picking team once again picked up a number of bags of litter and rubbish from people who don’t appear to respect our local wildlife haven…
Thank you to the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust for supplying the timber for the steps.
